Why does Xander slip into soldier-mode here? Just to remind us that he can?
Because it fits the needs of the story? It's not the last time useful soldier-knowledge will recur.
Willow and Harmony sign each other's yearbooks and Willow confesses to Buffy that she hates Harmony. I'm not sure I understand that. Do people always act so weird at graduation, or is it that Willow's messed up because she's afraid what the Mayor will do?
The former, I think. We're not done with Harmony yet, though.
Faith wears a dress. The Mayor acts fatherly. Awww. Is it a dream world? Is it just creepy, or is it a good thing in Faith's odd life?
Both, in a way. It will have repercussions.
And Wesley: "Was that a yes? I have trouble keeping track." Gad, I do love him. Can't see why the others don't.
He too will develop, though in Another Place.
Nice Buffy line: "I've narrowed down my list of one suspect." She's in fine form.
Yes, she's on a roll, our girl.
Anya wants Xander to leave with her. That's sweet.
And Xander: "I can't ...I got friends on the line." One of his good moments.
We'll hear echoes of this for some time.
# Good fight between Buffy and Faith. I'm not usually fond of extended fight scenes, but this is one of the best - partly because it's been looming all season. Or do I mean pending?
Both perhaps - certainly inevitable. And, yes, it's a wonderful fight.
So Faith, stabbed, falls out the window onto a moving vehicle so Buffy can't use her blood. How'd she manage that? Remarkable luck. Of course, I don't believe for a minute that she's dead or dying.

Stick with your instincts; most are good.
So good to see another episode from you!
